So wrote Jack Kerouac in the 240th Chorus of Mexico City Blues<\/em>, speaking of Charlie \u201cBird\u201d Parker, whom he regarded as the perfect musician. But Jack\u2019s love of jazz did not diminish his great love for classical music and his knowledge of it. His innate musicianship, of course explains the music of his prose, and his ability to improvise words to music, as he did with his old friend David Amram.<\/p>\n As part of Jack Kerouac 100, David gathers long-time friends \u2013 top-flight classical musicians with whom he has long worked and all of whom have played at Village Trip\u2019s in the past \u2013 for an afternoon of music that inspired the great novelist, and in turn inspires us. Works by J S Bach, Claude Debussy and Erik Satie \u2013 and by David himself, including a new composition commissioned to mark the centennial which receives its premiere at The Village Trip.<\/p>\n Unaccompanied Suite<\/em>, J.S.
